I, Den-O, Contract Urban Legend

No, this is not the time to be distracted.

Inoue Ueya came back to his senses. Although he did not feel any discomfort in his body, the black energy of the Sorade God had completely surrounded him.

"Tsk, why do I meet such a guy when I just go out for a walk? What bad luck..."

Then he took out the black pass from his pocket.

If the black energy in front of him was a curse, he currently had no means of defense. Although he had obtained a talisman that could defend against curses from Hanakaiin Yuura before, that thing was obviously not on Inoue Ueya who woke up from the hospital. Now all he could do was to defeat the opponent as soon as possible before he fell.

Unfortunately, the positions where he encountered enemies recently did not allow Inoue Ueya to directly summon the time train to attack. This time, the grove was no exception. The space was too narrow, and the size of the Sorade God was too small.

However, just as Inoue Ueya was about to transform, the active black gas in front of him suddenly stopped, as if being pulled by some invisible force. The black gas left his side as if it was torn apart and slowly came to Kuin's hand. Gradually, the black gas condensed into a black ball in her hand.

Kuin stared at the sleeve-clothed god with her dull eyes.

Although Inoue Ueya didn't feel anything, the malicious expression on the sleeve-clothed god's face had long disappeared, replaced by a look of facing a great enemy.

The sleeve-clothed god felt an unprecedented sense of oppression from Kuin, far beyond Yuzhang and even beyond any big monster it knew.

"You were going to hurt Inoue just now, right?" Kuin said coldly.

Like instinct, she just glanced at the black gas and instantly understood the essence of that power, and could even directly manipulate the "fear" of the sleeve-clothed god.

Kuin looked carefully at the black gas in her hand and her face sank.

"Curse? A curse that can kill people directly?"

Instantly, the sleeve-clothed god felt the pressure from the other party turn into murderous intent, and a sense of fear arose in his heart. Not only did the other party catch the curse he released with his bare hands in an instant, so that the boy next to him was not hurt at all, but she also easily controlled her "fear". The sleeve-clothed god now even felt that he had lost contact with the part of the "fear" he released, as if she had completely taken away that part of the power. This situation was simply an incredible thing in his cognition.

Obviously, the girl in front of him was not an ordinary human being.

He couldn't stay here any longer. If he continued like this, he had a premonition that he would definitely be killed...

The sleeve-clothed god wanted to retreat, and without saying anything cruel, he turned around and ran away.

Without hesitation, Kuin pointed his index finger at the Sleeve God, and the black ball turned into a spear and shot out, hitting the Sleeve God with lightning speed. Just like Inoue Ueya who was just wrapped in black air, the Sleeve God was first pierced through the body by the spear, and then began to be attacked by his own curse.

Inoue Ueya could even vaguely hear the Sleeve God screaming not far away.

"Huh, that was close, thanks to your help this time."

Looking at Kuin whose face became unusually cold, Inoue Ueya also thought for a while.

I always feel that Kuin's expression seems to have become a little weird after seeing him being attacked. I don't know if her reaction is a good thing. Could it be that she saw his miserable condition in the dream before, and then had a psychological shadow?

Kuin's expression instantly returned to normal, and he put on a confident expression and responded: "Hehe, leave it to me, I won't let Inoue get hurt again!"

"Haha, Mr. Inoue's safety is up to you."

"Okay, leave it to me!"

Inoue Ue did not stop Kuin from counterattacking the Sleeve God. No matter what, the Sleeve God's behavior of attacking humans for no reason is not worth saving...

To his surprise, Kuin seemed to have a way to deal with curse-type attacks, which was a good thing. At least he didn't have to worry about the enemy casting a curse after this.

After a while, the screams stopped, and the black spear disappeared as the Sleeve God's body turned into dust and dissipated with the wind.

Inoue Ue couldn't help but sigh. Sure enough, his luck was a bit bad. He would encounter such a dangerous creature just by walking around...

But if the Sleeve God leaves now, the classmate that Hanakaiyuan knows won't be cursed, right?

If you think about it this way, it should be a good thing for me to meet it, right?

Well, I can only think in this direction. If I think optimistically, my mood will not become too bad.

"Since the goal has been achieved, let's go back."

Chapter 110 Worry

In the abandoned building.

Yu Zhang crossed his fingers and rested his elbows on the table. Looking at the "Devil's Hammer" with only the handle left beside him, his face unconsciously became solemn.

By the way, the battle situation on his side seems to be getting worse and worse?

It has been several days since he came to Chiba. His trump card was gone for unknown reasons.

He sent the monster "Whip" that can control the wind and the land god killer "Sode Clothes God" to attack the leader and foundation of the Nura group, but their whereabouts are now unknown.

And for some reason, since the "Demon King's Gavel" was broken, something seemed to have changed in his heart. The manic feeling that had been suppressed in his heart disappeared, and the eyes of his subordinates gradually became a little bit... Something is wrong.

Although the Nura Group was temporarily in chaos due to the disappearance of Nura Hua, the Nura Rikuo gradually began to stabilize the situation...

Since "Whip" didn't come back a few days after it attacked Nura Huaxiao, I'm afraid it is in danger. After all, the target is the most powerful monster of the Nura group. Even though he is old, his strength should not be underestimated, right?

As for the "Sleeved God", Yuzhang hasn't heard any news about it since it went out to perform its mission, and there seems to be no murder of the land god nearby...

Could it have provoked some powerful being?

After the Demon King's mallet exploded due to absorbing a large amount of spiritual power, Yuzhang clearly understood one thing. In addition to the Nura group, there should be other dangerous forces in Chiba, such as the blond god of wisdom. , and the owner of the spiritual power discovered in this building...

The remaining power alone destroyed the legendary demon sword in one fell swoop. The other party was undoubtedly an unfathomable strong man and must not act rashly.

"Damn it, if the sleeve god dies, the plan to assassinate the earth god and cut off the "fear" of the Nuliang group will have to be cancelled..."

What else can he do next?

"Well, in short, let's use our supernatural power to reveal the blade of the "Demon King's Mallet" first, right? Although I cannot reproduce the original effect of absorbing "fear", it still feels a bit strange to only hold a hilt in my hand..."

Suddenly, a sphere emitting golden light penetrated the window behind Yuzhang and penetrated directly into his body. In the process, he did not even notice anything strange about Sibo.

Immediately, sand continued to emerge from Yuzhang's body, and a humanoid creature made of sand emerged from the floor. The strange thing was that the unknown creature that emerged only had its upper body, while its lower body appeared above its head.

Seeing the sudden appearance of the sand man, Yuzhang couldn't help showing a surprised expression. Someone could sneak into this stronghold without him knowing it, and then appear in front of him.

"Who are you?"

"Say your wish, no matter what it is, we can help you realize it. There is only one price you need to pay..."

…

"Yoshi, Mr. Inoue is finally resurrected!"

In the past few days, Inoue Ueya was finally able to leave the hospital. Although the fracture in his left hand is still there, other injuries have almost completely recovered.

"No matter how you put it, no matter how good a single ward is, you can't feel as comfortable as staying in your own home..."

"Wait a minute, Ueya, your left hand hasn't recovered yet, don't get injured again because you're too excited!" Miss Sadako said angrily.

"Well, I know..."

Inoue Ueya lowered his head subconsciously and did not refute Sadako's words.

Ever since Inoue Ueya came back from the small ancestral hall near the hospital, Sadako had put on an angry expression after learning that he was attacked nearby, and she still does so now.

A few days ago, Sadako woke up, first made breakfast, and then opened the door of Inoue Ueya's room. She wanted to wake up the guy who rarely snoozed, but found Inoue Ueya lying on the bed, seriously injured and unconscious. From that moment on, she fell into a state of restlessness.

Perhaps it was because she had lived a relatively peaceful life in recent years. After witnessing the tragic situation of Ueya Inoue, Sadako once again understood that the boy in front of her was a fragile human being after all.

Inoue Ueya is not as strong as Sadako imagined. Even when he was involved in weird things alone, he had no means to deal with it...

For Sadako as an urban legend, humans are fragile creatures.

Even Inoue Ue is no exception, especially because of his reckless character and unique bad luck. The dangers he needs to face are definitely more than ordinary people encounter.

Although the reason for this injury was that Inoue Ueya was unable to use the power of transformation in the dream, this incident did make Miss Sadako aware of a sense of crisis.

So Sadako was afraid. She was afraid that when she opened the door of Inoue Ueya's room one day, she would see not the usual boy, but a cold corpse.

Especially during the days when Inoue Ueya was in coma, she was filled with anxiety, worried that the boy in front of her would suddenly leave her.

This is why Sadako strongly requested that Ueya Inoue, who woke up, stay in the hospital for observation of his brain injury. Although she had a certain understanding of medical skills, she did not have suitable treatment equipment and environment at home. Just in case, she kept him there. It is definitely safer for her to observe Ueya Inoue's condition in a hospital with complete equipment.

It concerns Inoue Ueya's safety, and she must not take any risks.

But in this situation, that idiot actually sneaked out while she was walking away, and even actually encountered a monster that attacks humans...

"Really, it's obvious that idiot Zhiya's body is similar to that of ordinary people, and his reactions are slow. When you act alone, you should pay attention to your own safety. If you are always injured, problems will occur sooner or later..."

Although Sadako's words contained all kinds of dissatisfaction with Inoue Ueya, he did feel the worry in her heart.

Inoue Ueya showed a wry smile, stretched out his uninjured right hand, and gently rubbed Sadako's head.

"Don't worry, Mr. Inoue is very strong, and it won't be so easy to get into trouble!"

Inoue Ueya knew clearly that his injury would definitely make people around him worried, but he couldn't promise Miss Sadako that the same thing wouldn't happen again.

He had his own beliefs. Even if he couldn't transform, he would still come out if he encountered a similar situation again.

Standing on the other side, Hanako Natsukawa couldn't help but sighed after hearing the conversation between the two.

"Well, Inoue is fine now anyway, isn't that good?"

Contrary to Miss Sadako's thoughts, Hanako tended to support Inoue Ueya in carrying out his beliefs.

"After all, he witnessed his friend being attacked. If Inoue didn't help, then he wouldn't be the Inoue I knew."

"Hanako, I didn't expect you to--"

Hearing Hanako defending him, Inoue Ueya was moved.

"No, I agree, but I still think you're a bit embarrassed this time. In order to reduce the risk of injury, it seems that more combat training is needed..."

"Huh?"

Chapter 111 Worthy of being another me

After hearing Hanako's proposal, Sadako decided to let Inoue Ueya enter the game world again for training.

"Well, Sadako, do you really want to play escape?"

Inoue Ueya was holding a camera and walking tremblingly in the dark mental hospital.

[Humph, stupid Ueya, you want to be a hero next time, so get stronger as soon as possible! ]

"I understand the reason, but why play horror games..."

Because of the incident where Inoue Ueya was injured this time, Miss Sadako finally discovered that there was an obvious problem with him.

It seems that he has been letting others possess him to fight, so Inoue Ueya ignored the fact that he was an ordinary person before he was possessed, and he was not vigilant about unfamiliar environments, so he was attacked in his dreams.

Since he cannot transform once, there is a possibility that he will be unable to transform for the second, third, or even more times. This also means that the ability to transform cannot be used in any situation.

Compared with combat training, what he needs most now is to change his habit of relying on the power of transformation and to be familiar with facing strong enemies calmly and calmly in the state of ordinary people. Then, even if he encounters a similar situation next time, Inoue Ueya's survival rate will still be guaranteed to a certain extent.

Although Miss Sadako no longer wants him to take risks, this idiot has been like this since the beginning. At the critical moment, he will not think too much and will come out naturally.

[In short, you must get used to this atmosphere, overcome the fear, and then calmly deal with the oncoming danger. This is the goal of this training! ]

"Even if you say so, you won't play such a difficult game at the beginning..."

Inoue Ueya sighed, and then continued to move forward, exploring this dark space.

At the same time, Natsukawa Hanako sat on Inoue Ueya's bed, looking at Inoue Ueya on the computer screen with a happy face.

When she plays horror games alone, she will be scared by the content inside, but for some reason, when she watches others play horror games, she only feels full of joy in her heart, especially when she knows that the "player" in front of her is afraid of ghosts.

Thinking about it, Hanako's mouth corners unconsciously rise.

"Hehe, the pain that I felt before, Inoue, you will experience it this time..."

Inoue Ueya, whose consciousness is in the game space, suddenly felt an inexplicable chill, and his body trembled, but his heart became more and more uneasy.

Inoue Ueya always felt that a big fat man would suddenly appear while he was walking, and then beat him with a fist as big as a casserole, making him open his mouth and close his eyes.

But he can't be a coward!

"Sadako and Hanako are right, fear will affect your judgment, so I must overcome it!"

[Well, this time you just do your best, since it is your trial, I, I will not take action. 】

The voice of Arsen came in my mind, but this time her tone of voice did not have the usual indifferent feeling.

"Wait, you just said "don't attack", right..."

Can he understand this sentence as meaning that Yasen has a way to appear in this space?

[……]

Hearing this, Yasen fell silent.

As a "personality mask", Yasen has been sharing the same perspective with Inoue Ueya since the day she awakened. Although she can close her eyes, she still feels the fear from the real body...
